#2378963 Official NHL Trade Deadline thread

Posted by stillwater on 02 April 2013 - 08:26 PM

 If I wanted a physical center on our second line than Doan would be perfect, but what we want is someone who has vison.

 

My vision tells me that Shane Doan has never been a center.

 What ever happened to the win at all costs days??? 

 

The salary cap.




#2378786 An interesting point about our apparent deadline strategy

Posted by stillwater on 02 April 2013 - 03:44 PM

What's the "interesting point"?




#2371908 Potential playoff chances projection **Mod Warning Post #10**

Posted by stillwater on 21 March 2013 - 09:17 PM

Th problem with your line of thinking is, it doesnt take in account of the road vs home difference. Every team has one.

 

Though every team has a "road vs home difference", there's nothing to prove that the "difference" will stay in place over the course of an entire season, or in this case ... even a shortened season. Your point makes no sense.

 

For instance, even though the Wings had no PPG's on the road in their first 30 some chances ... you couldn't make a valid conclusion that they'd never score a PPG on the road all season.

 

Past play is somewhat predictive of future play, but it's impossible to draw absolute conclusions. Look at Columbus. Who could have predicted that they could go 11 or 12 games without a loss?  ... but they have.

When the Wings get outplayed this badly and lose this badly and you're still looking for positives, or "bright spots", you're really a Toronto fan in denial.

If his voice was in the building, it was echoing from a telephone somewhere other than inside the building at most times.

Plan A - your initial thoughts could have gone into any number of existing threads.

#2313995 Suter Watch: Decision today, down to Wings/Wild

Posted by stillwater on 03 July 2012 - 08:27 PM

Yes, play the citing game correctly please.


#2313961 Suter Watch: Decision today, down to Wings/Wild

Posted by stillwater on 03 July 2012 - 07:48 PM

I just know yzerman or lidstrom wouldn't pull this


Then again, neither Suter or Parise have ever been a Red Wing, therefore they don't owe you or Mr.Illitch anything at all.


#2312874 Bobby Ryan

I also think Kindl is a much better player than most give him credit for.

I suggest a drinking game based on the "new guy".

Any suggestions?


#2194589 RFA/UFA Signings

Posted by stillwater on 01 July 2011 - 04:59 PM

I would have sent an RFA sheet to Doughty AND get on the phone to start trade talks with Winnipeg for Bogosian.


Today isn't the deadline for offer sheets and no one has no way of knowing what trade talks Holland is having.

How about today's contracts? That was what I was interested in.

Is there anyone out there who thinks Holland should have given Wiz $6 million over 5-years? That type of thing.
